Training in Portugal -- over the Winter

The LGU has provided Barringtons with the RLCGA Website details.

HERE IS THEIR ADVERT: -----

They have a Golf Academy at Barringtons Vale do Lobo which incorporates covered bays, grass tees, a pitching green with bunker and an 18 hole putting green. They do not own their own golf course but do own a corporate Title at Vale do Lobo Royal course providing access at great green fees and they also have arrangements with the 15 local, mainly championship courses.

Their General Manager, Graham Stewart, is also a PGA pro so they know what is required to make their training camp a huge success.

In recent years several national and county amateur teams have based themselves at Barringtons for their winter training. In addition the following ladies from the LET use Barringtons on a regular basis for training purposes.

Georgina Simpson Elizabeth Esterl (Solheim Cup player)
Sophie Walker Henrietta Zuel
Rebecca Hudson Eleanor Pilgrim

I am sure each is happy to endorse Barringtons as a training venue.
Thanks for your time.
Best wishes
